 Still keeping up with that schedule! Let's see what we have this
fortnight...
 It's quite the list!
  * Marvels Guardians of the Galaxy (via EPIC)

I already have this on Steam,  If anyone asks I can get you the code.

 * Death's Door (via EPIC)

OOh, up my alley.  Less hectic sounds good.  I need to get back to Hades and try 'story mode' some time.

* Killing Floor 2 (via EPIC)

I enjoy a good zombie shooter on occasion.

* Coromon (via GOG)
    An off-brand Pokemon game. Find various monsters, capture
    them, and then throw them into battle with one another. I
    never got the appeal of Pokemon (I was too old when the
    originals were released) so this one is definitely not for
    me. But if you like enslaving innocent creatures and forcing
    them into ruthless gladiatorial combat for your amusement,
    Coromon is waiting for you.

Too late here too.  It's a genre I probably should like as I always enjoyed Summon Monster & Charm spells in AD&D, playing an Enchanter in Everquest, and Mind Control and Masterminds in CoH, Dungeon Keeper, Populous, and Master of Magic all which let your minions fight for you to some extent.  You still can fight (possibly very well) in all those. Perhaps that's the difference, or it could be the cartoon kiddie aesthetic which I don't enjoy in games.

* Monster Train (via GOG)

Very tempting to give a try, maybe just the name as it's originally (I think) from Adventure Time the cartoon (of which there's numerous games, I've played at a couple, and I wasn't impressed.)

* Pumpkin Jack (via GOG)

 > * The Gunk (via GOG)
 > * Scarf (via Amazon)
All sound possibly interesting, but I'm a bit off platforming currently.

* Disney's Gargoyle's Remaster (via Amazon)

I watched a few episodes recently, it's much better than the old 70's-80's cartoons I loved so much which I got on DVD and ruined my childhood watching a few episodes and seeing just how bad they were with my adult eyes. Almost all the newer cartoons are so much better.
There's only one actor from ST TNG's Jonathan Frakes (Riker)
